Fantastic stay at the Nightcap at the ship inn. Stayed for 5 days, we ate in the pub twice and found the food to be very nice and fresh and good prices.
The rooms were clean and spacious, the kitchette was well stocked with utensils and crockery.
The location was great! 2 minute drive from woolys, a bottle shop and a Chemist, its also just across the road from mcdonalds, best of all it's about 3 minute drive to busselton Jetty!

Stayed that the Night Cap with my mum in mid February.
Rooms were clean and very comfortable. Couldn't fault the service.
The pool looked very inviting but unfortunately the weather was not in our favour to use it during our stay.
Location is very central yet nice and quiet.
Special shout out to Steph and Brody at the Ship Inn bar/restaurant for their exceptionally friendly and professional service.
Will definitely return to stay when down that way again.

We went to the ship inn for dinner last night. My husband and I both had steak chips and salad. The food was wonderful, cooked to perfection.
Even though they were very busy, the service was excellent.
Thankyou for making it a great night.
